As the hearing concerning the Chandigarh International Airport Limited (CHAIL) resumed on Tuesday, the Union government (Ministry of Defence) told the Punjab and Haryana High Court that they have received the proposal from the UT Administration regarding alternative, shorter routes to the airport, and a decision will be taken in this regard within 45 days.
The matter came up for hearing before the division bench of Chief Justice Ravi Shanker Jha and Justice Arun Palli. The HC had been hearing a PIL filed by Mohali Industries Association in 2015 on making the airport fully functional by removing all infrastructural deficiencies.
